Look at the attached image. Although the class was modified (only the form file 
is up-to-date), it is not shown in the icon.

icon doesn't show correct cvs state
Comment 2 Martin Entlicher 2002-02-11 14:53:15 UTC
This is O.K.
When there are more than one different states, what icon should be
shown? The current solution is, that we do not show any icon in this
case.
Comment 3 drscott 2002-02-12 07:22:59 UTC
Hmm, i understand you.

But i think it's not a good idea to show nothing. I always think that 
such nodes are up to date. i know, that would only be the case if a 
little hook is shown.
What's about showing a question mark? 
Comment 4 Martin Entlicher 2002-02-12 10:26:15 UTC
O.K., we'll ask the UI team for opinion. Reopening...
Comment 5 Martin Entlicher 2002-02-12 10:28:49 UTC
Reassigning to UI. Please tell me your opinion, provide the badge.
Comment 6 Martin Entlicher 2002-03-18 09:44:39 UTC
Filip, please can you tell us your opinion on this from UI point of
view? Thanks.
Comment 7 Filip Rachunek 2002-03-18 13:22:02 UTC
I don't think that adding new icon badges for multi-file nodes would
help in this case. Since there can be many files under a node and all
such files can have different VCS status, creating special badges
would be virtually impossible.
About the proposed question mark, I wouldn't recommend to use that. It
could make the users think that there is something wrong with the
corresponding files related to their repository images.
Let's keep the current state.
Comment 8 Jiri Kovalsky 2002-04-05 10:02:49 UTC
Okay, in such case I verify this issue. I hope Filip, you convinced
Scott ... Thanks for cooperation guys.
Comment 9 Quality Engineering 2003-07-01 12:58:16 UTC
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
